Surely the motion detection should record when motion is visible so why does the system only record for the set time. It's hit or miss if the camera then restarts recording if movement is still there after the time has lapsed.

Surely there should be an option to record as long as movement is present and with an overrun time of day 10s once movement has stopped.

They released it for Arlo Pro a while back in a firmware release but it didn't work. I guess they're still working on it. Currently, the PIR shuts off when the camera is recording / live view streaming presumably to save battery power

I don't have the pro version. It seems like an obvious facility to have really.
